New Podcast, Yay! Open Source Sex 17

by Violet Blue on September 22, 2005

vifordinner.jpgFinally, after way too long and too much working and no playing… Open Source Sex 17, with all the trimmings. Also I put the photo on the right (by Thomas Roche) into my iTunes files… let’s hope to see it in the podcast directory soon! Happy birthday to meeeeee!

What am I doing for my big day? A podcast, a blog post, an iTunes music shopping spree, I wrote 3K words for my book, I’m pretending I don’t have to do any Fleshbot work, and later I might crack a bottle of something yummy and intoxicating and take naked pictures of myself. If they look good, I’ll post them!

Rant: I use Garageband and iTunes to make my podcast, and I’m about to throw my laptop out the window. Garageband is NOT intuitive and iTunes reset itself when I updated so my podcast is in mono *again* and I didn’t know before I ‘cast it, grrr… It really needs to be a lot easier than this. I want to open a program, record, add music and edit the volume levels of both tracks, then make the file. And not have anything change or reset itself after that point, hello! Just a wee cry to the heavens from a girl who knows very little about complex audio recording or programs, sigh. It’s a little humbling when now most of the podcasts out there are made by professional studios like CNN and NPR, and the rest of us *really* look even more like amateurs, and not in the cool indy way anymore, what with all the pros on the playing field…
